Report

New York, this luxurious place, had many places to spend money and nightlife. For example, there were all kinds of bars and some indescribable places.

And one of the most important functions of these places was to provide people with all kinds of alcohol. It doesn't matter if you just want to drink, or if you want to do something after drinking. Alcohol was always the opening song of nightlife.

It didn't matter if you were in Manhattan, Queens, or Brooklyn, you could find a place like this.

Because you could never eliminate people's obsession with alcohol and sex. This is the most primitive impulse of human beings.

Thousands of years ago, the Egyptians discovered the method of fermenting wheat and made the first cup of wine in human history.

This intoxicating liquid was sought after and welcomed by human beings. Since ancient times, alcohol had always been strictly controlled by the government.

In ancient times, it was because wine would consume a lot of food, and food was an important strategic resource for the country. So the country had to control wine.

But in modern times, it was because of all kinds of violence and sudden diseases caused by drinking. In fact, the country had always controlled alcohol.

One of the strictest was the prohibition in the 1920s and 1930s in the United States. Any drink with an alcohol content of more than 2% was illegal in the United States.

It was fueled by the Puritans at the time, but it also showed the government's concern about the social problems caused by alcohol.

For example, all kinds of violence caused by drunk people, even shooting cases, and so on. In a way, people who are drunk are very similar to drug addicts whose brains go haywire when they take hallucinogens.

Because they couldn't control what they did. Just like today's Russia.

Every winter, many people in Russia froze to death on the streets because of getting drunk. There were also domestic violence cases after drinking at home.

Some people said that Russians were a fighting people, but believe me, you wouldn't like to live with a group of fighting people who got drunk.

The United States government enacted the Prohibition Act because of similar considerations, but of course, it failed in the end.

You couldn't control people's desire to drink. Just like what happened today on a certain bar street in Queens.

A beautiful girl was drinking with two male companions. It was hard to say why the two boys invited the girl to drink.

They frequently toasted the girl, "Jane, today is your first day here. We need to celebrate. "

The boys raised their glasses to toast the girl again. The girl named Jane didn't really want to drink anymore.

That was because she wasn't a good drinker. The two people who invited her to drink today were people who introduced her to her current job as a nurse.

Being a nurse in a private hospital was not a bad job, at least the pay was good. So Jane couldn't refuse the invitation of these two men. It was just two glasses of wine. Jane's idea was simple.

But now, she really felt that she had drunk too much. "This is the last glass, I need to go back. I drank a little too much today. "

Jane felt dizzy and barely finished the last mouthful of beer in her hand. She was ready to leave and go home.

She missed the big bed at home very much. She wanted to throw herself on the bed and have a good sleep.

"Hey, Jane. It's still early. It's not even half past ten. There's no need to rush back, "one of the men said while holding Jane's hand. It seemed that he wanted to force her to drink.

"Let go, let go." Jane struggled hard, but she couldn't break free. She was a little tipsy.

"It's okay. Let's keep drinking. We can take you home later. "The two men were about to drag Jane into the bar.

How could Jane's strength be compared to the two men's? She could only shout, "Let go!"

But at this time, there was no one on the street. No one would wander on the street at this time, so naturally, no one came to help Jane.

Just as the two men were about to drag her back into the bar, a hand suddenly reached out and opened the two men's hands that were holding Jane's.

"Let go! Didn't you hear that this lady doesn't want to drink with you? She wants to go home and rest! "The person who spoke was a woman wearing a white suit and a white mask.

"If you continue to be entangled, I will call the police now!" The woman who suddenly jumped out took out her phone and really started to call the police.

Only then did the two men let go. "Tch!" The two snorted in disdain. Recently, there were more and more people like this masked woman.

This was the sudden increase in the number of vigilantes on the streets of New York.

Some of them had superpowers, but most of them were just ordinary people. Because of the encouragement from Nightcrawler's video. And the new security regulations introduced by the New York City Police Department made more and more people join the ranks of street vigilantes.

"Don't be afraid, lady. I'm a Vigilante officially registered on the Night Watchman Alliance website. My name is Moonbird." The woman in a white uniform and mask briefly introduced herself to Jane.

"I come to bars like this when I have time to send those drunk ladies home safely."

Jane's brain was a little dizzy, but she still understood what Moonbird said. "Night Watchman? So do you have superpowers? "

Jane was actually very good at talking. She didn't feel it before in the bar. But after coming out to get some air, she couldn't even stand steadily and needed Moonbird's help to walk.

"Superpowers? I'm sorry, I don't. "Moonbird smiled." But I have a taser and pepper spray. Drunk girls in bars are very dangerous. One-third of sexual assault cases in the United States happen in this situation. And because of the drunkenness, it's usually difficult for the court to determine whether it's sexual assault or voluntary. "

Moonbird said seriously, "So I don't think it's a good thing for girls to drink like this."

Jane smiled. "I don't usually drink. It's just a special situation today. But I really appreciate your help today. I'll go … "

Before Jane finished her words, she suddenly covered her mouth and ran to the corner of the alley and began to vomit. She really drank too much.

"Are you okay?" Moonbird also walked into the alley and asked about Jane's situation with concern. At the same time, she helped Jane to help her vomit more comfortably.

And just as Moonbird walked into the alley, the two men who had been pouring wine to Jane also appeared at the entrance of the alley. They were crazy for pouring wine to Jane for a reason.

Now that they were interrupted by this guy called Moonbird, they were very unhappy. But this woman called Moonbird looked tall and had a wheat-colored complexion. She looked very good. Maybe today was a good day?

Just as the two big men walked into the alley, they didn't know that two pairs of smart small eyes were looking at them above them.

Mindy patted Laura on the shoulder. "Look, our prey is here! But it's a pity that we can't kill them. Otherwise, Big Dad will definitely find out who did it. "

Mindy was used to killing people. The night watchmen who knew her well could easily find her through her methods.

"Actually, we don't have to kill them. That will cause unnecessary trouble. Just teach them a lesson! "Laura didn't like to kill people if it wasn't necessary.

The two unlucky guys still didn't know that they would be the first target of the New York Children's Club.
